Pesky garden dwellers

I've been trying to get rid of these pesky garden gnomes forever. They come out at dusk and feed on the bulbs of our best plants.

Nothing has worked until a neighbor gave us these Gnome-B-Gons. Now our garden is Gnome-free! These fellas work for next to nothing and get fast results

Here is a close-up, captured at great risk to my toes.

May the Gnomes leave your garden alone.

Quite clever and most entertaining Turpin!

I shall be the lone voice for the lowly garden Gnome for when they're gone what will the vicious little Gnome-B-Gon's do? Sure gnomes are a tad mischievous why in me muum's garden the little blighter's out-fished here pond leaving the raccoon's nothing to play with. But G-B-G's will take over your garden, peeing all over the dandilions let alone what the will do all over your begonias. I shudder at the thought.

Much better to have garden gnomes than the dreaded "underpants gnomes."

Nah, these guys are versatile. Once all the gnomes are gone they convert to votive candle holders. The thing is, their foraging range is wide enough that I can rent them out to all the neighbors who have a similar problem. Hopefully, though, they won't develop a taste for the human g-nome.
